Abstract
3,3-Difluoro-1,2-diphenylcyclopropene (CpFluor), a bench-stable fluorination reagent, can be used for an efficient deoxyfluorination of (hetero)aryl, alkyl, alkenyl, and alkynyl carboxylic acids to the corresponding acyl fluorides under neutral conditions. A synthesis of acyl fluorides with in-situ formed CpFluor, as well as a one-pot amidation reaction are also described.
